MoonBassAlpha Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 Posted on the guitars page but thought I might get better visibility here. Humbucker on a 650 has one coil open circuit. They appear to be potted too. Do Ric sell replacements or can they be rewound? Any useful advice welcomed. Guitar belongs to an acquaintance who bought it on a drunken whim about 7 years ago and has just dug it out again! Cheers MBA Quote
MoonBassAlpha Posted June 6, 2016 Author Posted June 6, 2016 Thanks ez. For the time being, I've just wired it single coil and it sounds just fine, so, unless the owner really wants to replace it, I'll leave it like that. Quote
iiipopes Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 Rickenbacker does offer the HB-1 pickup as an aftermarket item. You need to contact Rosetti, the UK distributor for RIC: http://www.rosetti.co.uk/Browse/Parts/Rickenbacker/Pickups Quote
MoonBassAlpha Posted June 7, 2016 Author Posted June 7, 2016 I actually contacted them already. They want £105 for one. Seems a lot for a pretty ordinary mini humbucker. I think you can get them for about 75 bucks in the States Quote
